I'm not 100% sure, but I think that it pre-dates Dean guitars.

the guitar ur refering to was a prototype that I believe never reached production.....yes this was before Dean became into existence..... but still u see a V headstock and 99.9% of people will think Dean

that switch is right where i strum my guitars. right exactly where the neck meets the body.


i realize that most normal guitar players don't. only the ones that grew up learning how to play with mustang/jag-stang/duo sonic II switch layouts.


im sure 99% of guitar players across the world hate mustang switches for thier placement, but for me, this thing can go fuck itself with its switch, before i snap it off after playing it for 5 minutes

From one of the photos on the MF site, it also looks like the switch tip is that fucking terrible kind that comes on every Tele and falls off after putting your hand in the same room as the guitar. For $7500, they should really sort that shit out.

Of course people will associate it with Dean, but I hardly see how Gibson could be blamed for ripping of Dean by using one of their own designs that they came up with prior to Dean guitars existing.

Gibson have lost the plot first the dusk tiger then that firebird X Monstrosity now this... Someone needs to take the crayons away from the monkeys they’ve hired as designers.

I never understood the need for 3 humbucker pickups on one guitar. Only person I can picture buying this is Ace Frehley.

This is shit.

Haha. That means you can't play Jags either

I strum right into the 5-way switch of a standard Tele or Strat, but I steer clear of the top right section. I generally can play with any switch on the top of a guitar, thanks to having had both a Les Paul and a Mustang early in my guitar life.

Then again, I had a Tele early on, too, and I was always flipping switches on that thing.

I like the look of the switch, not the placement.
I like the look of the geetar, not the headstock.

Head = fail
